World Renowned Chess Grandmaster, Illia Nyzhnyk, a student at Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri, will be coming to the Logan Mansion on Sunday, November 7 to give a simul tournament which is the abbreviated term for a simultaneous exhibition in which one player (typically of high rank, such as a grandmaster) plays multiple games at a time with a number of other players. Mr. Nyzhnyk gained worldwide attention when he won Group B of the 2007 Moscow Open at the age of 10. In August 2019, Nyzhnyk won the U.S. Open Championship in Orlando, Florida, scoring 8/9 to finish in clear first. This triumph was capped by his last round victory over the previous year's champion, Timur Gareyev.
